What is the conversion from grams to cups for solid foods?

Answer 1

Accurate conversion from grams to cups is possible only for water, which is how weight and volume are related in the metric system. The following conversion will yield too much of a solid more dense (heavier) than water, and too little of a solid less dense (lighter) than water.

First convert grams to liters: 1000 grams (1kg) 1 mililiter (ml).

Liters and milliliters can then be converted directly cups:

1 militers 1 teaspoon 15 ml 1 fluid oz. 100 ml 1 cup 1 liter 4.2 cups 1 liter 1.06 quarts 1 liter = .26 gallon

Here are the correct conversion factors within a few tenths of an mL:

5mL = 1 teaspoon (level teaspoon)

15mL = 1 tablespoon (level tablespoon)

30mL = 1 ounce

240mL =8 ounces (1 cup)

1000mL/1 liter =33.8 ounces

Keep in mind 1gram = 1mL

Answer #2

Technically, there is a conversion from grams to cups, but unfortunately, it has letters and numbers in it. The formula would be:

c = g *1/d * 0.00423

where

c = cups

g=grams

d = density = g/mL

and 0.00423 = cup/mL

So, if you don't know the density of the substance you are trying to measure (i.e. sugar) look it up online and go from there. Good luck!

Answer 2

1 ounce = 28.34 grams

1 gram = 0.03 oz
